It would revert to what it was before 1997. That would mean no homosexual behavior in public.

No, the law said that all homosexual relations were deviate sexual conduct and were punishable by a $50,000 fine and 10 years in prison. It didn't say anything about public behavior vs. private behavior.

Find a case where they broke down a door and arrested someone for it before 97.

Nobody was ever charged under the law for public behavior or private behavior. But don't let that stop you. Let's imagine you had the power to write the new law. What specifically would you prohibit?

The article doesn't state that. It simply says The party adopted an official platform in June that keeps a long-held position in support of making homosexual acts illegal,

The public versus private is what I would support.

Nobody was ever charged under the law

Then you have no argument.

Have a nice day.
